Do you play video games with your spouse? What do you play together? Do you have coop sessions? I want to hear your stories.

My husband (40M) is a PC gamer. I (40F) have recently started playing coop games with him. I’ve tried playing in the past, but I never get very far due to the intensity in most of them. Recently, we started playing co-op games together so he can help me out while we play, and I can actually enjoy the game. I was just curious what other couples play and if you have any recommendations for us.

PC games we’ve played in co-op: Splinter Cell, Breakpoint, Green Hell, Astroneer, Grounded, and we just started Icarus. *The only one we truly finished together is SplinterCell and most of Breakpoint.

    I game a lot. Mostly shooters and strategy games. My wife likes stuff like Animal Crossing but she doesn’t play a lot.

    Sometimes we’ll play together. We tried Overcooked and It Takes Two, but didn’t stick with them for very long. I keep trying to get her into stuff but she just isn’t all that interested.

    My wife doesn’t play at all, nor does she watch when I play. Our hobbies are almost completely the opposite.

    Stardew Valley is co-op and it’s farming/life sim.

    There’s a lot of factory and resource management games that are co-op and not intense. I personally recommend Satisfactory.

    If you’re looking for some combat without stress, Elder Scrolls Online is very co-op friendly.
